Sommario/riassunto

Their Place Inside the Body-Politic is a phrase Susan B. Anthony used to express her aspiration for something women had not achieved, but it also describes the woman suffrage movement's transformation into a political body between 1887 and 1895. This fifth volume opens in February 1887, just after the U.S. Senate had rejected woman suffrage, and closes in November 1895 with Stanton's grand birthday party at the Metropolitan Opera House.  At the beginning, Stanton and Anthony focus their attention on organizing the  International Council of Women in 1888.  Late in 1887, Lucy Stone's American Woman Suffrage Association announced its desire to merge with the national association led by Stanton and Anthony.  Two years of fractious negotiations preceded the 1890 merger, and years of sharp disagreements followed.  



Stanton made her last trip to Washington in 1892 to deliver her famous speech "Solitude of Self."  Two states enfranchised women-Wyoming in 1890 and Colorado in 1893-but failures were numerous. Anthony returned to grueling fieldwork in South Dakota in 1890 and Kansas and New York in 1894.  From the campaigns of 1894, Stanton emerged as an advocate of educated suffrage and staunchly defended her new position.

Sommario/riassunto

A comprehensive overview of nonlinear H8 control theory for both continuous-time and discrete-time systems, Nonlinear H8-Control, Hamiltonian Systems and Hamilton-Jacobi Equations covers topics as diverse as singular nonlinear H8-control, nonlinear H8 -filtering, mixed H2/ H8-nonlinear control and filtering, nonlinear H8-almost-disturbance-decoupling, and algorithms for solving the ubiquitous Ham
